Finnish translation now published

2019-01-24 [Petri]

The expanded and illustrated Finnish translation of my book, “A Brief History of Everything Wireless: How Invisible Waves Have Changed the World” has been officially released.

The Finnish title is “Värähtelevä maailma: langattoman viestinnän lyhyt historia”, which translates to “Oscillating World: The Brief History of Wireless Communications”, and the storyline in this hardcover edition has been expanded not only with pictures, but also with details of the relevant radio and television history in Finland.

The supporting web pages can be found at lvlh.net, and they probably look very familiar, as I built them by utilizing the flexibility of the Django Framework: apart from the front page, it is all using the existing bhoew.com code, which I originally wrote to support multiple languages.

Even though I was translating my own text into my native language, it wasn't as easy as I expected, but the copy edit support from the publisher, Gaudeamus, was great. A summary of this process (in Finnish) can be found here.
